How to tell if you have embraced your inner hausfrau:

1.) You start making your own reusable covers for your beloved Swiffer duster thingy with the telescoping handle. (I used this tutorial.)

2.) That’s all I got, sorry. Except to rant that a 10-pack of the Swiffer refills costs $10! A buck each?!?! For something that you use to snag a few dust webs and then toss? You have got to be kidding me.

Griffin was totally fascinated by the fake Swiffer cover and giggled uproariously every time I waved it at him. (He refused to take his afternoon nap today, so we’ll assume that he was just punchy from lack of sleep. )

I had to do some emergency culling of my frozen milk stash this evening, as the lack of freezer space had reached crisis proportions and we were running out of room for actual food. I ended up tossing everything older than 3 months, since the freezer is attached to the fridge and isn’t a “deep freeze”, it’s opened at least a couple times a day, and we’ve already defrosted a batch that had gotten weird in storage. Even after getting rid of the questionable older stuff, I still have 264 ounces in there! I’ll consider donating the excess once Griff is weaned, but since I have an occasional beer/glass of wine, I think I’m automatically excluded. :-/
